Sen. Josh Hawley bluntly stated why he chose not to attend Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s speech before a joint session of Congress on Thursday.
“I didn’t go to the speech because I didn’t want to be part of a photo op asking for more money from the United States government when they have not given us a single piece of accounting on anything they spent,” Hawley said on Friday following questions surrounding his absence. “Our European allies are continuing to sandbag,” he continued. “We have spent more on Ukraine than all of the Europeans put together, and it’s on their continent.” Some Republicans, however, including Reps.

The least you could have done is wave as you ran away. joshhawley
The pure distillation of a cowardly rural politician!
Josh clearly thinks he’s more important than he is. 😅
By your actions you are endorsing Putin and you have no sympathy for the deaths and suffering of the Ukraine people. What Putin has done and is doing is now being compared to the atrocities that happened in WWII? Shame on you, Boerbert and Gaetz.
He’s one big photo-op. What a phony.
I’m starting to believe Hawley would make a great GOP POTUS one day
So he didn’t do his job for personal reasons… Interesting since he’s elected
Douche
TRANSLATION: I didn't want to take a chance on Putin seeing me there and thinking I was supporting Zelenskyy and Ukraine!!!!
No one cares Whorely- jog on
I guess “America First” really DOES mean the same thing it meant in 1939.
Strategic reason to support a pro-democracy country that's under attack by Russia. A Yale law person should understand the importance of NATO.
simplycaptiv8in He also wants to avoid being seen in a place that treason was committed right on our capitol floor. Smart move for Josh.
You shouldn't be in Congress. Run, Run, Run
PUTIN told him he couldn't go...
'... and also, I'm a douche.'
'No Obama' will the DOJ be chasing after you? Don't get nervous! 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🇺🇦🌊
It’s not like one day the USA woke up and said “we should stand against Russian expansion”. It’s been policy since 1945. This dude is out to lunch.
He’s disgusting and embarrassment to this state…the one he doesn’t live in. Another crazy MAGAt.
He is a amoral swine
He had a gym steam room he needed to check out
I did Nazi that coming, HawleyMO
The group of billionaires handling the war in Ukrenia are more powerful than he or any of us knows
Putin is evil. Anyone who supports Putin is evil. Refusing to support Ukraine is supporting Putin & the destruction of democracy. Hawley is evil, Missouri
Ya'll got yaselves a real freedom lover there....
Running Man Howly would have boycotted Winston Churchill’s visit during WW2. Defending Ukraine defends democracies worldwide, including the US.
HAWLEY WILL NEVER OUTRUN THE SHAME OF HIS SEDITION HE WILL NEVER BE REELECTED AS MISSOURI SENATOR HE WILL NEVER BE ELECTED PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES E V E R
Who cares?
Puty Pu
What a snot-nosed little punk.
Nazi feels
Nobody missed him
Besides, he's in training. He's a sprinter.
This guy doesn't like photo ops? LOL
